These buses are for the new contract on route 60 at Croydon Garage [TC] commencing on 31/08/13, with a mixture of new and existing fleet buses. UW 11655kgs. Some of this batch were at ADL Harlow mid-week.

[First] - A further hydrogen hybrid single decker for route RV1 has been delivered from the last two expected in this batch. This bus is not expected in service until it is transferred to Tower Transit. It is understood that the new bus delivered does not carry any operator decals.

[First] - Ten new H41/24D Alexander Dennis Enviro400 double deckers have now been delivered for the new contract on route 425 from Lea Interchange Garage [LI], commencing on 06/07/13. When the contract starts, the First operations will have transferred to Tower Transit, so these buses may never see service with First.

The four buses that have been registered with "LK13" plates are being used on driver training. A `rough' guide, based purely on observations would suggest that 23 of the required 32 have now been delivered. If these totals are anywhere near correct, then the hot question will be whether there will be enough NB4L buses available to start the service on route 24 on Saturday 22nd June???
